Ludwig Rosenthal. 



Fifty years a bookseller. 



In presenting our one hundred and thirtieth catalogue of rare books 
and choice manuscripts , we have pleasure in calhng the attention ot the 
bookbuying worhl to ourfiftietli anniversary as Ijooksellers. Ludwig Rosenthah 
who founded his antiquarian bookstore in 1859, is to-day after fifty years 
still at the head of tlie firm that bears his name. 

In the last five years we liave found it possible to add largely to our 
business facilities. The entrance of Ludwig R-osenthal's sons into the firm, 
and the acquisition of acklitional Ijook warehouses (for the storage of our 
stock (»f over a million books and ])i"ints) liave enaltled us to deal with a 
greater volume of Inisiness. 

One word as to tlie present catalogue. There are nine items of which 
only one complete copy is known eitliei' including or in addition to our 
own, and there; are sixty-nine items of unique interest. A glance through 
the catalogue itself will do more t(j explain it than pages of description.

vellum). 324pp. With a great many mathematical figures. 

Foho. Calf (modern binding) gilt edges. 1000. — 

An important manuscript of great interest. Buridan's commentary is probably 
unpublished and occupies pp. 1 — 234. Observations on metereology occupy pp. 
235 — 294. PP. 295 and 290 are blank and show the bull's head watermark distinctly. 
PP. 297 — 324 contain the commentary de anima. The colophon reads: ExpUcit 
commentum super tres libros de anima MCCO nonagesimo (1390) quinta die Octobris 
per mag. Theodoricum et regentem monasterii apud summum. Johannes Buridan 
was rector magnificus of the University of Paris in 1320, but left Paris, where he had

6 BACH, Johann Sebastian (1685 — 1750). Continuo accompanyment with 
Introduction, Recitatives, Arias, and Chorales, of the Cantata ,, Christ, 
unser Herr zum Jordan kam" (Christ, our Lord, to Jordan came). ORI- 
GINAL-MANUSCRIPT. From the Library of Herr M. C. A. 
Miiller, Bach's successor as Musical Director at St. Thomas' Church, Leipzig, 
who presented the score to Herr Sigismund Neukomm. 6 pages. Folio. 
Morocco. 6000.— 

Most of Bach's original manuscripts are in the Royal Library, BerUn, and 
in consequence of this, very few ever come up for sale. On the first page in Bach's 
autograph, "Christ, unser Herr zum Jordan kam", "Continuo". A little further 
up (in German) in Herr Sigismund Neukomm's autograph," This is the autograph 
writing of the great Joh. Seb. Bach. His successor Herr A. C. Miiller gave it to me 
as a souvenir of my stay at Leipzig". The manuscript is in perfect preservation 
and is a choice specimen of Bach's writing.

lan o. (Coria, Bartolome de Lila, ca 1489.) Goth. 364 ff. 2 coll. 50

The only complete copy known of this work which Haebler 41 mentions as 
rare and curious and of which he only quotes imperfect copies. 

8 Beethoven, Ludwig van, 1770 — 1827. Autograph letter with signature 
addressed, a Monsieur Perd. Riess. Mesr. B. A. Goldschmidt et Comp. 
k Londres. Dated, Vienna, 8 March, 1819. 4 pp. Quarto. Framed under 

glass. 1800.— 

UnpubUshed letter of great musical interest. Containing the following particulars 
„Vergessen Sie mich nicht, in der Sonate miissen sich schrecklich viele Fehler be- 
flnden, kilnftigen Postag erhalten Sie das Verzeichniss, alles wurde geschwinde ge- 
Bchrieben, mein Copist Schlemmer wird schon alt, ein armer Teufel — sind wir es 
doch aUe hier — Der Erzherzog Budolph wird nun endUch seine vorige Bestimmung 
als Erzbischof Von Ollmiiz antreten. — Aber noch sehr lange kann es anstehn, 
bis ich Verbesserung erhalte, ich bin .aber ermiidet durch so viele Drangsale, welche 
mich bisher betroffen und noch fortdauern. AUes schone an Ihre Frau, an Neate 
Smart. In Eil Ihr Beethoven." — 

Here follow two and a half pages (in large quarto) of music notes in Beethoven's 
autograph throughout, being corrections of mistakes made in the manuscript already 
sent by him to London for publication. 

9 Beethoven, Ludwig van. Original Musical Manuscript. 4 pp. Folio. 1200.— 

The authenticity of this manuscript is proved by S c h i n d 1 e r. "The first 
page contains the molto Adagio from the third suite (Canzone de ringraziamento) 
of the Quartett in A moll. op. No. 32." Compare also Thayer, Beethoven, 1908 
edition Vol. 5. page 266 ff. It is a musical thanksgiving prayer for Beethoven's

renewed health, and an expression of his renewed power of working. Thayer compares 
this Adagio with the Adagio of the Ninth Symphony. The three pages that follow 
contain "la Danza Tedesca" (Op. 130, Quartett in B-dur) in A in the first recension, 
which was afterwards transcribed in B-dur but was destined from the first for the 
Quartett in A-Moll. Compare Thayer, as above, p. 293 ff. who quotes the above 
manuscript as being in Schindler's possession. At a later date, this work was transcribed 
in B-dur. We have here the positive proof for Thayer's statements as we have both 
pieces next to one another in our manuscript quoted above. The second piece 
is unpublished. 

10 Beham, Hans Seb. Biblisoh Historien, Figiirlich furgebildet. Franckf., 
Chr. Egenolff, 1533. The title is surrounded by woodcut 
figures. 40 ff. with 81 superb woodcuts. Quarto. Bds. 1500. — 

Original edition only known to exist in a few copies. Of. LudwigBosen- 
thal's article in the Repertorium fiir Kimstwissenschaft, Vol. V. p. 379 No. 11. 
Rosenberg, Beham, only quotes the 1535 edition with 82 woodcuts. P a u 1 i , 
Beham, p. 482 only knows of five copies of this first edition. Extremely scarce. 

11 Berlioz, Hector, (the French composer). (1803 — 1869). A remarkable 
collection of 41 autograph letters and documents dating from the years 
1829—1863. Quarto and octavo. 1400.— 

A truly remarkable and full series of letters by the famous composer which 
as far as bulk and quality is concerned has never been equalled by any other series 
that has come into the market. Some letters cast an interesting light on the com- 
poser's tourn^e in Russia, April, 1847, other docimients such aa the original auto- 
graph programme of BerUoz's concert at the Gewandthaus, Leipzig, December 10 1853 
are quite unique.

Each of these Bible parts is complete in itself, so that we have here the complete 
Bible. An additional interest is given to this copy by the twenty-eight curious and 
cleverly painted miniatures by a Gernian Master of the fifteenth century which 
are to be found painted in the first part of the Volume. The first leaf for instance 
has a fine miniature of a knight surrounded by eighteen various colored arms. The 
other miniatures, which are generally joined to the initials and spread over the whole 
of the page represent flowers, courtly dames, and gentlemen, fruits, animals, 
the Imperial, and the Bavarian arms. The first as well as the second 
part of the Bible are quite complete. 

From the Esterhazy Castle Library recently bought by us in its entirety.

copy contains eighteen leaves more than the copy known to bibliographers. This, 
the first edition of the Wend Bible, was to have been printed in 1580 at Laibach, 
but the Archduke Charles vetoed the further progress of printing. Dalmatin thereupon 
left at once in 1583 for Wittenberg where the Bible was published in the following 
year. The numerous woodcuts which ai'e of great interest come from the school

only (Cf. the declaration of the Bishop of Begensburg). Perhaps Georgius de Spira 
is identical with George Beyser, printer at Wurzburg. Each of the volumes has 
afine large woodcut, St Wolfgang kneeUng before a holy apparition, and 
behind stands St Peter. One of these woodcuts is colored. Very fine copy with full

Quite unknown to bibliographers and probably the only copy known. This 
is a breviary for the use of the Benedictine Convent of St Mary at Soissons. Very 
fine copy "r6gl6" in a remarkable binding executed for Henry III 
of Prance. Black morocco, \vith the emblems of the Passion gilt on the front and 
back boards: in all four corners and on the back the famous skull (death's head) 
edges gilt and clasps. A most curious binding such as was usually made for the King 
of Fi'ance after he had instituted the Order of the Wliite Penitents.

Exceedingly rare, both because it is the product of a rare press, and because 
of its Uturgical interest. The types are identical with those nimibered Nos 3 and 4 
by Falk in his "Die Presse zu Marienthal im Bheingau und ihre Erzeugnisse". The 
volume has no signatures, and no pages are numbered. For these reasons it certainly 
belongs to the oldest products of this press. See Falk's article on this book in the

The world map of Domenico de Rossi (de Rubeis) dated 1695, of which the 
whole of the gores or 24 sheets are offered for sale as above, engraved by the 
Strassburg artist, Matthias Greuter iii Rome, is totally undescribed and unknown. 
None of the works consulted for the description of the first edition of the map 
No 62 of thi^ catalogue mentioned this third edition. In the delineation of Australia, 
the continent is already shown under the name "Nova Ollanda", as well as the 
coasts of New Guinea and many of the Polynesian islands. In the American con- 
tinent the discoveries of Magalhans, Drake, Lemaire, Schouten, Davis and Hudson 
are well indicated. The province of New York is stiU called Nieu Nederland and 
California is still shown as an island.

Gutenberg, circa 1450. 30 U. PRENTED ON VELLTOI. Folio. 5000.— 

Ttvo leaves only of a totally unknown edition of a thirty-liue Donatus 
printed on TELLUSI. These two leaves contain pages 3 and 4 as well as pages 
21 and 22 of this edition. Pages 21 and 22 are completewithfull margins, 
while only about a fifth part of pages 3 and 4 has been preserved. Collation:

there is a copy of the corresponding leaves of another edition but with the 
same type. See Veroffentlichungen der Gutenberggesell- 
schaft I. Zedler, Die alteste Gutenbergtype, p. 41 foil. (Plate 9 and 10 of 
the Facsimiles). Through the above copy we can confirm Zedler's theory that 
the London fragments form part of a thirty line edition and not part of a 27 line 
as thought by Hessels and by Proctor. The tiiirty hne Oxford fragments, though 
printed with the same types as the above, are taken from another edition, as may 
be easily seen if the reproductions are consulted which form part of Veroffent- 
lichungen der Gutenberggesellschaft, II. Schwenke, Die 
Donat- und Kalender-Type, Plate VI, P. 2 b. (last four lines). The conclusion 
results that the abore is the only complete leaf knoTra to exist of a thirty-line 
Donatus, of an edition which has remained totally unknown. 

The above Donatus measures 280 mm in height and 192 mm in breadth. 
The type-face (without margin being included) measures 242 mm in height and the 
lines are 160 to 170 mm in length. We have to thank Professor Dr. Schwenke, 
Director of the Royal Library, Berlin, for the information that our Donatus is 
older than the Oxford Fragment, because of the irregularity of the line-endings 
which proves the early age of this Donatus. The above is therefore not only the 
oldest but also the most complete thirty-line Donatus known. We woxild call

attention to the fact that the large initials are painted in red by hand, and that, 
in a similar way to the Ludwig Rosenthal Missale Speeiale (No. 65 of this 
catalogue) several letters which did not take the printer's ink sufficiently well, 
have been inked in, a new corroboration of the early date of the Missale Speeiale.

Without Place, Name of Printer, or Year, (Mainz, Joliann Gutenberg, 
before or ca. 1450). 176 ff. 1811. Folio. Original stamped pigskin binding 
with fittings and bosses. 

Gntenbergr's first printed book, hitherto absolutely unknown. A unique 
item of unbounded typographical interest dating from the cradle of the Printer's 
Art. 

The first leaf begins as quoted above, Sequitur registrum. The third, 
Secuntur misse speciales. 173 ft. follow of which one is blank, so that in all there 
are 176 leaves in the book. There are 14 leaves wanting, of which however 
several were blank. It is however very difficult to state exactly where leaves 
are missing and which were blank, as there are no signatures, no numbers on the 
pages, and no catchwords. The pages are however numbered in an old hand, 
though with many errors. 

The Missal has on the lower margin water-spots throughout and shows some 
fingermarks occasionally. However, considering that we have before us one of the 
first productions of the printer's press, the condition of the volume does not leave 
much to be desired. This unique volume has been the object of searching enquiries 
and study during the last few years. Up till a short time ago, the opinion sustained 
by Misset, Professor Hupp, Henri Stein, that the above was a trial book of Guten- 
berg's was confronted by another opinion supported by Adolf Schmidt and Pro- 
fessor Schwenke, that the book is the work of an unknown printer dating from 
1470. Although the last-named authorities were only able to oppose doubts, without 
any background of facts to the probabilities that testified to an early date, it is 
only through the discovery of a second book in a similar typographical condition 
that the Gutenberg theory has been maintained on a solid foundation. This book 
is a Missale abbreviatum, from the Library of St. Blasien, containing only 72 leaves 
(the last two are blank) that has turned out to be an extract from the Missale 
Speeiale we are offering for sale, with but slight differences in some sections 
of the text, and which is contemporary, as is proved by whole lines printed from 
the same type as ours. This Missale Abbreviatum, which is now in the Library 
of the Benedictine Monastery of St Paul in Carinthia is a complete work in itself and 
contains the Canon woodcut of the Crucifixion which is wanting in our Missale 
Speeiale. This woodcut is dated 1450 by such experts, as W. N. Schrei- 
b e r , W. Schmidt, etc., who are absolutely authoritative. Professor Hupp has 
in addition been able to obtain further typological proofs from the St. Paul Missal 
for the early age of both missals, so that by now the controversy may be considered 
as at an end. The following books which have made the Missal the object of dis- 
cussion may be obtained from us.

67 Heures Espagnoles. Horae Beatae Virginis Maria« cum calendario ad 

usum eoclesjae Hispaniae. Splendid Spanish Book of Hours on Vellum 
written calligraphicall}' in Spain in the fifteenth century in red and black 
in Latin and Spanish. The book is ornamented with twenty-seven splendid 
full page miniatures, surrounded by beautiful borders, with fruit, flowers, 
birds, insects, and precious stones to make them Uveher. Many pages 
have in addition a charmingly designed border surrounding the text. 
In addition there are eleven smaller miniatui'es, 17 borders round the 
text, and an enormous number of large and small letters, initials, etc. on 
backgrounds of different colors, blue, red, etc. heightened with gold. 301 ff. 
Calf (romantic binding) gilt extra, g. e. 15000.- 

This superb miniature manuscript contains splendid miniatures both of 
the Spanish and of the Flemish schools. Spanish mmiatures are well known to 
be exceedingly rare. This manuscript seems to have belonged to the Ayalas, a 
Spanish Noble family, whose arms, (a bu-d's wing) are to be found on many of 
the miniatures, and whose colors (a charming blue) have often proved the motive 
\inderlying the color scheme. This manuscript has undoubtedly been specially 
painted for the Vicount Joseph de Ayala (or an ancestor of his) whose autograph 
signature we find on the first leaf. What renders this manuscript especially 
remarkable is that the miniatures all of which have been an original part of the 
book are divided into two schools, a Spanish type, and a Flemish tj^pe. The 
manuscript has at the beginning a twelve page calendar, and has the Ayala sig- 
nature on page 1. The Ayala arms are repeated fourteen times on the miniatures, 
sometimes even several times on the same miniature. The miniatures represent; 

1. The Dedication of the Virgin in the Temple (Spanish school). 

2. Full page border, with two small miniatures, the Ascension and the 
Resurrection (Spanish school). 

3. The Annunciation (Spanish school). 

4. Full pa^e border with large mitial (Spanish school).

paintings both as regards execution and composition, as 
well those of the Flemish school as of the Spanish type. Some of the miniatures 
have especially beautiful landscap'es.

The following note referring to Australia indicates why Australia was less 
patronised by explorers than other countries, „Weill Amerika lohnender und naher 
fiir die Bntdeckung sei". The following notes on the West Coast of Australia 
are of great interest: 

„Landt van de Eendracht ist anno 1616 in dem Octobri entdeclit worden von einem 
Hoilandischen Admiral Theodoro Hartogio mit dem SohifT Concordia Oder EIndracht genant. 
Daher es aucti T'Landt van de Eendracht genant worden. Ist hiernach Anno 1622 welter 
lustrlert worden von Johanne de Edels, daher auch die Gegend Edels Landt genant wird. 
Anno eodem ist auch erfunden worden die Gegende de Leuwine genant. Anno 1628 In 
dem Januario Ist von J. Nutio entdeckt worden Nuytslandt." 

Important contemporary Document for the History of Dutch Exploration in 
Australia. See Collinbridge, Discovery of Australia, pp. 261 — 275. 

Under one map is an inscription dedicating the two maps to one Johann 
Jakob Gontzenbach, merchant, in which the author's initials are given as M. A. F. B. 
These maps are as important for American geographical history as for the exploration 
of Australia.

114 Portulan. Anonymous portulan or sea-chart (50 : 20 cm) on vellum mounted 
to roll upon a wooden roller containing charmingly colored and well 
executed details of the coasts of Africa, Asia and Europe and especially 
of the Mediterranean Sea and the Bay of Biscay. This charming specimen 
was certainly executed in Italy for the use of merchant seafarers at the 
commencement of the 16th century. It is fully described in "Studii bio- 
grafici e bibhografici sulla storia della geografia in Itaha" by G. Uzielli 
and P. Amat di S. Fihppo (2d ed.) Rome 1882. Vol. II, though some 
mistakes are there made. The portulan belonged to the Marchioness 
Gerdano de Colloredo (Melz)in Udine. 1500. — 

These portulans are not only of great interest for the history of the state 
of geographical discovery in Europe in the 16th century but are of great human 
interest as showing us on what the mariners and merchant of the Middle Ages 
relied on to buffet the storm and dangers of the sea. 

115 Portulan. Domenech, Amaldo. A very interesting Catalonian chart (61 : 38) 
of distances between the various centres of commerce in Em'ope, 
Asia, and Africa dated 1484 and executed by "mi Arnaldo Do- 
menech disipulo petri Rosellann o", on which the chief 
towns are figured with towers etc. and the arms of the countries in which 
they are situated. The following towns etc. are figured; England, Mont- 
pelher, Perpinya, Tortoza, Valencia, Sevilla, Alexandria, Bruges, Avignon, 
Matela, Genua, Toulouse, Sardinia, Piza, Barcelona, Sicihj, Naples, Majorca, 
Tunis, Venice, Constantinople, Rhodes, Crete, Acre, Damascus, Beirut, 
Cyprus. This chart represents a type of the greatest rarity of which very 

few are known. 1500. — 

116 (Portulan.) Oliva, John, of Livorno. 1530 Portulan or sea-chart, (SU/^ 
: 49 cm) painted on vellum in colors of the coasts of Europe, Africa and 
Asia, and especially the coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. This charming 
specimen of a portulan was executed by one of the famous Oliva family, 

so well known to cartographers. 2000. — 

This portulan is both dated and signed, a double virtue which is not found 
frequently. At the top is a miniat\u?e of Jesus on the cross. An interesting point 
about this sea-chart is that the island of Malta as weU as the island of Rhodes 
bears the arms of the Knights of St. John in spite of the fact that the Knights of 
St. John had lost the island of Rhodes already in the year 1522. Not known or 
mentioned by UzieUi and by P. Amat di S. Fihppo. 

117 (Portulan.) Scotti, Giacomo of Genoa. Eight very interesting vellum portu- 
lans, being charts of the sea-coasts of the British Isles and of the Mediter-

Fol. 43 b by another hand): Anno domini Millesimo cccxlvi facta est quedam visio 
in Olaustro Cisterciensis oridins. Fol. 44 b. vigiUate ergo. This exceedingly curious 
latin manuscript contains the story, the Ufe and the prophecies of the Tiburtine 
SibyU relating to the Papacy and its Future. The well known dream of the two 
senators (during the reign of the Emperor Augustus) is also mentioned in this manu- 
script which deals with the prophecies on the Papacy in greater detail. The pope 
is figured in the miniatures with monks, and in the company of grotesque animals, 
dogs, angels etc. On the last page is a letter from Magister Johannes de Davidis 
Toletanus containing prophecies for the year 1349. After the description of the 
miniatures the text is occupied with prophecies on the Empire of Byzance, about 
the universal chaos, about the world's condition till a new Pope should reorganize 
the world. The miniatiores are interesting not only on account of the colors employed 
and on the composition of the pictures , but also because of the persons repre- 
sented, which are indicative of a period of primitive art. The composition, the 
architecture, the expression of the faces, the costumes are all indicative of a distin- 
guished artist, probably a South German. Paracelsus' book "P aracelsus, 
Auslegung der Figuren, so zu Nurnberg gefunden seindt worden" published at 
Basel, 1591 pp. 1591 foil, has some ressemblances to the figures in the manu- 
script we offer for sale. Paracelsus' work has been reproduced in Johannes,

die Jesuiten", Vienna 1848 p. 15.

This precious Mimuscript of the Lower Rhine agrees with the copy of the 
Jena University Library and that belonging to the grand Duke of Baden: and 
seemingly was the model from which the latter was formed. In the same way as 
the langviage is of the Lower Rhine, so do the miniatures point to Cologne. The 
scenes representing profane and biblical Wstory are cleverly colored ajid the figures 
in them skilfully grouped. It is possible that the artist copied these from an 
old master of the 13th centnry. Under each miniature is an explajiation in red 
ink. Tills manuscript which resembles the two mentioned above in contents, diffe- 
ring only in the dialect employed, is incomplete with them. Starting with the 
second part of the 9th chapter, it finishes with the second part of tho thirty-third 
chapter. In adition 1 leaf forming the end of chapter 30 and beginning of 31 is 
missing. The MS. was for many years in the possession of Karl Simrock who 
doubtless had the intention of publishing it. Cf. P o p p e , t)ber d. Specvilum

and puppae, etc. and generally represented with the flowers and animals 
on which the insects live. Some plates have been added showing insect- 
eating birds. The whole are carefully mounted and contained in six volumes. 

(Ca. 1750.) Large folio. In six cases. 3000.— 

In splendid condition. I can find nothing of tho artist in any biblio-

all the Insects etc. have been drawai with an exact fidelity to nature distinctive 
of Dutch miniature painting. The coloring is beautiful and the work would be the 
pride of any Natural History Museum or Society that would possess it. The col- 
lection reaUy requires seeing in order to appreciate it fully.

This little anonymous manuscript has not been identified in spite of the 
efforts of musical authorities in Bruxelles and Paris to discover its author. The 
manuscript is quite chaming owing to its legible caUigraphy and its delicious orna- 
mentation. It opens with a history of music, and the essential fomidation of 
song, and forms a complete Manual of Plain Chant. At the end is an annotated 
Gloria in BxcelsLs. The manuscript begins "Musica secundum Bootuim est scientia 
recte canendi seu vera,citer modulandi omnem perfectionum cantus."

Rare work of an unknown artist vmknown to all bibhographers. The title 
has a border with four women below it. Then follow 29 ff. printed on both sides 
with a large number of designs for lace, embroidery, flowers, and animals etc., 
engraved en wood. The whole reminds one very much of the manner of the famous 
artist Peter Flotner.

division inlmeridians from 10 to lO" and contains the Equator, Tropics 
and Polar circles. America bears the name "America" and "Mondus novus", 
and is divided into four parts: North, Central, South America and the 
Archipelago. The following names of American towns, rivers etc. occur.

The Continent lying opposite the southermnost point of America is called 
Brasielie regio. The most interesting characteristic of the globe 
is the fact that the results of Verrazzano's travels are marked by "terra 
Verrazzana." Except on the maps of Girolamo Verrazzano (Giovanni's 
brother) of 1529, the name is nowhere found. 

In any case this globe dated 1530 in two places, is the earhest to show 
Verrazzano's discoveries. An earher cartographic mention of these dis- 
coveries is only to be found on Vesconto di Maggiolo's Map (1527) and that 
of Girolamo Verrazzano (1529). — A skiKully worked bronze foQt in imi-

184. Warner, Rich. Die Hoohzelt, Original autograph score. 1833. 

This is the original manuscript of Bichard Wagner's first Opera, never per- 
formed, and unpuhlished. 

During Wagner's stay in Prague, the idea of this Opera was first sketched 
out. In his autobiography wo find the following details as to the work. "After 
a wedding the bridegroom's friend who is madly in love with his friend's bride 
has a furious struggle with the bride who is left temporarily alone and after a wild 
scene of madness is thrown into the courtyard. At the funeral, the bride falls

lifeless on the dead body of her husband's late friend. Returning to Leipzig, I 
composed the first number of the opera and the important sextett in it charmed 
Weinling very much. However it did not please my sister and so I destroyed it 
later on." In spite of this assertion, the opera was not entirely destroyed for future 
generations. Wagner had carefully copied out his composition from his rough 
notes and had presented it to the Musical Society of Wiirzburg (Musikverein) of 
which he was then conductor. On the wrapper of the opera we find the fol- 
lowing "Lit. D. No. 30. Chor und Septetto von Richard Wagner. Vereinseigen- 
thum." In addition thre are some 4 Bavarian duty-stamps, cancelled with the 
rubber stamp of the lawyer Dr. Steidle of Wiirzburg, 1 — 3 — 33. On the second 
leaf is the title in Wagner's own hand. "Fragment einer unvoUendeten Oper: 
Die Hochzeit von Richard Wagner. Dem Wurzburger Musikverein zum Andenken 
verehrt. Introduktion; Chor und Septett." The last page of the ms is signed, 
'Wurzburg, den Isten Marz, 1833, Richard Wagner". The ms passed into the hands 
of an amateur as soon as the Musikverein of Wiirzburg ceased to exist, in spite 
of the efforts made by Wagner to recover posession, including an expensive lawsuit 
in which he was mulcted in costs. From the possession of the amateur the ms 
passed into our hands. 

The music of the Wedding, the first opera of Wagner written at the age 
of 20, bears already traces of that genius which we find reflected in Tristan and 
in Lohengrin. Distinct anticipations of some of Elsa's and Tristan's music is to 
be found in the manuscript. The state of the ms. leaves nothing to be desired, and, 
as all know Wagner's beautiful musical hand, is a feast for the eyes.

The author seems to have belonged to the Rhme Gymnich famUy which 
came to an end in the eighteenth century. The volimie we offer for sale appears 
to be an original work of the author, and has his signature and his own arms 
drawn and colored by himself on the inside of the bmding. The manuscript has 
the advantage of a very full index.
